Program Highlights

LL.M. Workshop

Every year in October, the educational advising center of the Fulbright Commission in Paris organizes a seminar about LL.M.s in the US. Several representatives of U.S. LL.M. programs and alumni are there to explain how it works and give tips about how to chose the best program and how to be admitted. This is always a very successful event. This event is followed by a Q&A session during which prospective students can ask questions directly to each US. rep. or alum.


General information session about studying in the US

The educational advising center organizes a general info session about the US educational system every year in September (generally on a Monday right after the EAIE conference). US representatives who are in Paris are welcome to participate to give a general overview of studying opportunities in the US for international students.
